    I went to school with Larnell (yazz skuul) and %100 believe he had never heard that song. He grew up in church and in the gospel community, where you could easily grow up without hearing a single metal song. He's also a rad dude, I don't think he'd put it on. Him getting it that quick is just.. yeah. Big ears, insanely musical. Man's a monster.

    For someone of his calibre, this wasn't a challenge for him on a technical level. The only thing that was being challenged was his memory. He can assume a lot of the moves along the way, because it follows a very calm and steady structure. The most significant parts of this song are the breaks in the drum parts, and how the drums are reintroduced in the next section.

    But it had me onboard for positive vibes from the start.

      If something is way outside someone's usual genre or taste, no matter how popular it may be for however many years, it's not at all unbelievable for someone to not ever have heard it. There are huge artists on places like Spotify that have tens of millions of followers and hundreds of millions of plays who I couldn't name or wouldn't recognize to save my life.

    What I love about this is that he gets the arrangement pretty much spot on for all the bits where it matters (basically everythin where the singer needs to know where to come in), and then at the end when everyone just gets grooving, he improvises but does so tastefully and makes appropriate musical decisions. Exactly what you need in a touring drummer of his calibre.

    About the snare sounding great for this song. Lars uses sticks made by Easton. they are made of aluminum and have a plastic sheath over the rod and ia held in place with a screw on plastic tip. That gives a "dead" or "dry" sound to the snare. MIck Fleetwood (Fleetwood Mac) and Tico Torres (Bon Jovi) uses the same stick. Larnell is using a wood stick which has a brighter sound and allows for the snare character to come thru as well. It's something i explored, which is how i know and when there was mention of the snare in relation to this song... well I had to geek out. Carry on.

They also look like magic wands. 😂 They were fun for a while, but I eventually went back to wood. You just can't beat that sound. Works great on any kind of snare too: brass, steel, wood, deep, shallow, large diameter, small diameter, you name it.

The drums start a different pattern which matches the faster paced beats during that section, and I think he starts off bobbing to that, it just lines up with the guitar too because the drums and guitar work together so well in this song. The build up to it in the drum line is the same as an earlier section which also had the same brief-pause followed by rapid building beats.

    Plus that lovely speech at the end about coming to different types of music with respect was icing on the cake.
    Game recognizes game - even a `jazz' guy can tell a great metal song when they hear one, and though Lars gets a lot of flack for not being a `technical' drummer or as precise live as a lot of other famous metal-guys, most (respectful) musicians always recognize him as a master of writing parts from a song-smith perspective.

      When Lars made an effort he was an expert at creating memorable drum parts. Not necessarily difficult or impressive, but so damn specific and memorable that if anyone plays a cover you instantly know if they changed something or missed anything.

      People love to hate on Lars. It is very odd imo. He was the absolute perfect drummer for some of the most popular (hipster metal fans do not recognize those however) Metallica albums ever. Yet "LaRs IS tHe WoRSt dRuMmER EVeR!"

      He was playing with feeling. Playing with feeling works so well because it’s about fitting the vibe of the song. Folks can clown Lars these days but his drumming fit the songs of the era.

    Whether he has actually heard the song before or not, I'm positive this session would have went the same. The dude killed it on the We Like It Here recordings and apparently he learned all the parts for that on the plane ride over to the session. Really sick drummer.

    Dude, it is so cool seeing your reactions to these "first time hearing" videos. For real, seeing how stoked you get watching others play and just groove, is really fucking cool to see. Instant subscriber, and I just feel shitty it took so long for me to come across your channel. You don't pause 100 times to critique, you let them just play and drop the perfect amount of "your take on the matter" Same with the Santantonio video, she crushed Slipknot with a single bass and seeing you get excited for her, Larnell, for so many people just shows a lot about you, and that regardless of the skill level someone may be at, you support them just as much. I'd head bang with you any day my brother 🙌🏼 Looking forward to many more videos like this!!
